"During the period, two soldiers also chose to commit suicide in order to encourage everyone to come to rescue General Shenwu."
"All of this is due to my ineffectiveness in governing the army. I am willing to accept all severe punishments."
"But I just ask Your Majesty, for the sake of the loyalty of these soldiers to our Great Tang, forgive their serious crimes."
Chapter 105 I!Wronged
Hearing Zheng Guang's words, the hearts of the thousands of soldiers of the Shenwu Army, as well as Li Qiu, were quite shaken.
Many officers and soldiers of the Shenwu Army disobeyed the order of the army and mutinied out of the camp. This is a very serious felony.
It stands to reason that this Zheng Guang must take the lead in suppressing and killing everyone to make an example of others.
But it never occurred to Zheng Guang that instead of pushing the blame, he would accuse him of such a serious crime, which might even be decapitation.
At this time, in Li Qiu's heart, there was also infinite emotion.
First of all, he didn't expect that because of himself, the incident would become so big, and it would be a pity that two such loyal soldiers would commit suicide and die in vain!
In addition, Li Qiu is also incomparable, and deeply admires the generals in the early Tang Dynasty.
He loves soldiers like a son, and is full of righteousness. He is a good man with a real iron frame!
After hearing Zheng Guang's words, Li Shimin's expression darkened immediately.
But it wasn't because of Li Qiu, nor was it because of these soldiers of the Shenwu Army.
Li Shimin himself was born as a general, and he has led troops to fight for many years.
I can also understand the emotions in the hearts of these Shenwu soldiers.
What he was angry and hated was that damned Fu Lin.
If Fu Lin hadn't ordered Li Qiu to be executed on the spot, how could the surrounding people and the soldiers of the Shenwu Army have rebelled?
However, the military generals and ministers around him didn't know what he was thinking.
Seeing Li Shimin's anger, his face became extremely ugly.
Marshal Li Jing took a step forward, "Your Majesty, we have just ended a battle with the Turks."
"These soldiers, as well as Li Qiu, which one of them is not for Chang'an, for the Tang Dynasty."
"Please Your Majesty, for the sake of their loyalty and the reason for the incident, please spare them this time."
After Li Jing, Du Ruhui, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Warrior Xun and others also begged for mercy.
And the old county king Luo Sen fell to his knees for Li Shimin with a plop.
"His Majesty!"
"Li Qiu, and the soldiers of the Shenwu Army, fought fiercely with the Turkic army for more than a dozen days and nights for the city of Youzhou and for the country of the Tang Dynasty. They lived and died several times."
"Now if His Majesty punishes them for serious crimes, I'm afraid it will make the people of Youzhou and Datang feel chilled!"
Don't look at what the old county king said, it was extremely sincere, begging Li Shimin to intercede for Li Qiu and all the soldiers of the Shenwu Army.
But in detail, the metaphor in the words of the old county king brought in the whole Youzhou.
There is even a hint of warning.
This weight, this courage, this bet, is really not small.
So after hearing what the old county king said, Li Qiu, who was like a mirror in his heart, was both moved and anxious.
At this time, Li Shimin helped the old county king up, and looked at the important officials of the Tang Dynasty in front of him, feeling depressed in his heart.
Li Qiu!That is my son!
It is the son I have always owed, the most valued and favorite son in my heart!
The one who just saved me, saved the entire Tang Dynasty, my eldest son!
I feel sorry for him and reward him enough, so how can I punish him severely, and even want his life?
How is this possible? !
Oh, you are all loyal people now, and you have a lot of favors from Li Qiu.
In the end, he and I became villains instead?Dafa Jun? !
You said you guys, why are there so many things?
So annoying.
Just as Li Shimin took a deep breath and was about to speak, a eunuch suddenly reported that it was Empress Changsun who had arrived.
As soon as he heard Empress Changsun coming in person, Li Shimin's expression changed immediately, and he hurried up quickly.
In the past few days, Li Shimin has asked the imperial physician several times almost every day about the condition of the eldest grandson empress.
Now, what kind of body the eldest grandson empress is in, he is the clearest in his heart.
"Oh, Queen, your body, why are you here?!"
The extremely weak Empress Changsun immediately burst into tears after seeing Li Shimin.
"Erlang, they said that Qiu'er is back, and my Qiu'er is still alive, is this true?"
Li Shimin nodded repeatedly, "Really, really, maidservant Guanyin, our Qiu'er is still alive."
"So you have to listen to me, eat well, drink medicine, and live well."
"That way you can spend more time with Qiu'er and make up for him, won't you?"
At this time, what Empress Changsun said almost made Li Shimin feel so depressed that he vomited blood.
"But Erlang, how did I hear that you want to punish Qiu'er and want Qiu'er's life?"
"If that's the case, please His Majesty execute me together, so that our mother and son can go on the road together."
Hearing what the queen said, Li Shimin was about to cry in his heart: I am wronged!
Then Li Shimin began to scold that Fu Lin in his heart, wishing he could tear his body into tens of thousands of pieces immediately to relieve his hatred!
But right now, the most important thing is to appease the empress.
So, Li Shimin beckoned directly and called Li Qiu over.
"Li Qiu, since you were suspected to have died in battle last time, the Empress has felt distressed and regretted for you every day."
"Now that you have come back safe and sound, you should have a good conversation with the queen."
After listening to Li Shimin's words, Li Qiu naturally accepted the order respectfully.
Then he came to the empress' chariot, and respectfully greeted the eldest grandson empress.
"Boy Li Qiu, pay homage to the Empress!"
As soon as he heard this crisp, haunting voice, and as soon as he saw Li Qiuzhen standing in front of him again, Empress Changsun burst into tears.
"Li Qiu, is it really you?"
"Can you take two steps forward and let me take a good look at you?"
Li Qiu obeyed and came to Empress Changsun, and then Empress Changsun gently took Li Qiu's hand and caressed his face as if she was stroking a treasure.
All this, to Empress Changsun, was like a very unreal dream.
As for Li Qiu, when he saw Empress Changsun's pale complexion after a long illness, and her hands that became dry and thin, she couldn't help feeling a burst of heartache.
"Empress, I haven't seen you for more than a month, you, your body..."
At this time, the old eunuch beside him sighed and explained to Li Qiu.
"General Li Qiu, maybe you don't know something."
"When you, General, were fighting in the Turkic army, the Empress herself went up to the tower to beat drums to cheer you on."
"Look at the palm of your empress, it hasn't healed yet."
"Later, when the empress watched you die miserably in that Turkic army formation, she felt very sad."
"I feel sorry for you, and I don't know how many tears I secretly shed for you."
"Then, the empress became seriously ill."
"Now that you've come back and you've been victimized by a traitor again, your empress has rushed over with her sick body regardless of dissuasion."

Chapter 106 Not killing is not enough for the anger of the common people
Hearing the words explained by the old eunuch Xu De, Li Qiu was also extremely shocked and deeply moved.
Hastily bowed to the eldest grandson empress, "Madam, as a man of the Tang Dynasty, the boy should go to battle to kill the enemy, serve the battlefield, and drive out foreign aggressors."
"Only untie the battlefield to die for the country, why return the shrouded horse leather."
"How can you be so virtuous, kid, to attract your empress like this again?!"
"The empress is the empress of the ages, and she is extremely important to me in Tang Dynasty."
"You must also ask your mother to take care of the phoenix body and recover quickly."
Hearing Li Qiu's impassioned and sincere words, Empress Changsun was both gratified and moved.
With moist eyes, he nodded his head, "Li Qiu, he is really a good boy, a good boy of my Tang Dynasty."
"Don't worry, I will recover soon."
Seeing that their mother and son finally healed again, the Empress Changsun also changed from a death wish to a strong desire to survive.
Li Shimin on the side sighed in his heart, and finally felt relieved.
Then, I saw him once again approaching Fu Lin in an extremely angry manner.
"You are only a sixth-rank supervisor, and you dare to order the imperial guards to execute a man who has just saved me, the city of Chang'an, and the entire Tang Dynasty? General Shenwu?"
"Who gave you the bear heart and leopard gall?!"
With that said, Li Shimin pointed to the countless people around here, as well as the officers and soldiers of the Shenwu Army.
"Open your dog eyes and let me see!"
"Because of you bastard, the people of Chang'an City were furious. The Shenwu Army, which had just repelled the Turks and made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty, mutinied because of you."
"There are even two loyal soldiers who committed suicide because of you!"
"The two of them failed to die at the hands of the Turks, but at the hands of you bastard!"
"If I don't kill you, how can I be angry with the common people, and calm the anger in my chest?!"
"Come here, pull this Fu Lin down and cut him off!"
"In honor of the spirits of the two soldiers of the Shenwu Army!"
Hearing Li Shimin's words, the forbidden army rushed up immediately, and they had already seen Fu Lin with envy.
At this time, that Fu Lin was so frightened that his calves twisted and he was almost paralyzed.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty, I have been wronged..."
When he was pulled down by the imperial guards, he happened to pass by Quan Wanji's side, so he took Quan Wanji as his life-saving straw.
"Master Quan, help me, you have to intercede for me, help me."
"Today, my lord, you recommended me to be the execution supervisor..."
Hearing his shout, everyone including Li Shimin couldn't help frowning, and focused their unkind eyes on Quan Wanji.
At this moment, Quan Wanji was naturally frightened to death, his face turned pale immediately.
He kicked his legs hastily and threw this Fu Lin away, almost treating him as a poison.
"Go away, go away, what crazy things are you talking about, I don't know you..."
After Fu Lin was executed and the people applauded and rejoiced, Li Shimin's eyes fell on Zhang Yungu who was still kneeling on the ground.
Right now, it is naturally impossible to kill Zhang Yungu.
But, as the king of a country, he must not be too shameless with his eloquent words.
